Weekly Bulletin

Dear Rotary Friends,

We have a great in-person/zoom meeting planned for this week at the Atlantic Oceanside at 119 Eden Street in Bar Harbor. We will hear from our very own Dean Read as he shares the history and future of the 30^th Annual Cadillac Challenge Century. Read about the ride here https://barharborstory.com/2019/10/07/cadillac-challenge-century-bike-ride/ or here https://www.cadillacchallengecentury.com/.

Please RSVP for lunch by emailing me back at lisahorsch@friendsofacadia.org. We want to make sure we have food for all. And bring your dollar bills to lunch -- happy and sad dollars go to the Hancock County SPCA in honor of club founder Cary Swan this month, and the Queen of Hearts pot is getting big!
